Emphasis added by me.
Thing is, it's not black and white most of the time - usually a developer is using Gen AI as an assistant in some capacity. There are a wide range of ways to do that with really big differences in how firmly their hand remains on the wheel of where things are going. Only in the most extreme "vibe coding" scenario would it be fair to characterize the code as "written by AI".
There reaches a point somewhere on the spectrum of dependency on AI where quality would suffer and developer capacity-building would be stunted. Where that point is, is a more productive question than a binary Yes or No to all AI.
